our purpose of seeking online job is not t cheat. but to earn legally utilising ones talents.

all that i was looking was, is there any genuine works that get done in cyberspace like in the brick n mortar space. Atleast in the brick n mortar space there is a personal interaction and voice communication. So tracking things is much easier. but here we are dealing with total strangers.

what i understood from interactions here is there is a possiblity of a few genuine opportunities on the cyberspace.

Well i am tracking a few of these freelancing websites for some time now ...
But what i find is that ....if you bid then you are thrown out very instantly because ....the people i mean the freelancers present there have almost ready stuff to deliver ....
I found it very difficult for a fresher to get in there for getting some job.
Well can someone suggest where can a started start?

My personal experiences have not been as bad as most here are depicting. I got work done a number of times and only on occasions had problems with quality of work and related delivery of payment from my side.
I think the way to get in to work can be any or all of following:-
* Be gold member. normally it cost a few dollars per month, yet for the ones who have to spend money for their projects, its very hard to spend on vendors with no credentials, higher level / paid membership is some indication of your soundness.
* Quote low in early days - May not necessarily work, yet the chances are more.
* Have profile we prepared for kind of work you need to quote / compete. Try to figure out why someone should pay you and prepare your quote answering those questions.
* If you do not have a profile for similar work on similar sites, at least have some demonstration ready for kind of work you are going to compete. A ready made instant demo, if well placed can defeat the best in the competition.
Regards

Cool

I am a writer both fiction and non fiction . i write lots of articles , scripts ,poems and plays . As a non fiction writer i write on ground report and i get some income .
I did try go freelance we have to invest . Even in biz we have to invest . people are asking for native writers . That is the whole problem .
i have also been cheated on some sites . I was asked to write articles . After writing more than twenty I was rejected .

Not all topics get the attention. Some get more than othes. this is not my personal experience, but that of a blogger whom i met at another forum.
isn't that unfair?
